Bush, Dukakis
bask in victory
after primaries
Associated Press
Republican George Bush and
Democrat Michael Dukakis exulted
in their impressive New Hampshire
primary victories Wednesday while
the rest of the presidential field jock
eyed for position in a campaign
without clear, commanding front
runners.
And with the delegate-rich prima
ries just ahead in the South and else
where, there was no danger of peace
breaking out among the combatants.
“I think you’re seeing a mean
George Bush,” said Sen. Bob Dole,
who blamed his defeat in New
Hampshire on distortions he said
were spread by the vice president’s
campaign. “I’m not going to run
from it. I’m not known for running
from a fight.”
Tennessee Sen. Albert Gore Jr.
dismissed his Democratic rivals as
“peas in the same pod” who had
staked out positions to appeal to the
voters of Iowa and New Hampshire
and who would be rejected in the
Southern primaries next month.
Dukakis disputed that, just as
Bush denied Dole’s accusation of
foul play.
“We’re going to surprise some
people” in the South, said the Massa
chusetts governor as he headed for a
day of campaigning in Dixie. “Our
message of strength, of opportunity
for the future is going to do very
well there.”
While most of the field worried
about raising money and gaining
momentum, there were others who
had possibly fought their last.
Former Arizona Gov. Bruce Bab
bitt returned to Washington after his
fifth-place Democratic finish and
seemed a likely candidate for with
drawal, although the odds were
against his endorsing another con
tender.
Even so, he clearly hadn’t lost his
desire for the White House.
“The only cure for the presi
dential disease is embalming fluid,”
he said, quoting fellow Arizonan Mo
Udall, himself a presidential also-
ran.
There was fresh talk that the
muddled races might produce no
clear winner before the nominating
conventions, particularly on the
Democratic side.
New York Mayor Ed Koch said he
thought the Democrats would draft
a nominee, either New York Gov.
Mario Cuomo or New Jersey Sen.
Bill Bradley.
But Democratic national chair
man Paul Kirk predicted the con
vention would pick a winner on the
first ballot from among the active
contenders.
Bush, who won in New Hamp
shire after first watching his support
hemorrhage when Dole captured
the Iowa caucuses, said he was tak
ing “nothing for granted” from here
on out.
The vice president denied Dole’s
charges, and said he had proven he
had staying power by rebounding
from his third-place finish in Iowa.
“The system worked,” he said.
“You can take them on the chin, you
can get up and you can fight again.”
Schultz to meet
with Sakharov
on Moscow trip
WASHINGTON (AP) — Secre
tary of State George P. Shultz will
meet with noted Soviet dissident An
drei D. Sakharov on his trip to Mos
cow next weekend to underline U.S.
support for the human rights
movement.
Sakharov, winner of the Nobel
Peace Prize in 1975, is a physicist
who helped develop the Soviet hyro-
gen bomb in the 1950s. His subse
quent outspoken support for human
rights led to his banishment to the
closed city of Gorky in 1980, until he
was allowed back in Moscow in 1986.
Shultz will hold wide-ranging
talks Sunday with Foreign Minister
Eduard A. Shevardnadze, then meet
with General Secretary Mikhail S.
Gorbachev and Shevardnadze again
on Monday.
